Platform Enhancements: Global Workforce Analytics Data Refresh and New Industry Codes

Our latest code release went live over the weekend on the Radford Network. Key enhancements for this update include:

  • The Global Workforce Analytics platform has been updated with the August 2020 data refresh. In addition to refreshed data, our new industry code classification has also been applied to the platform.


  • When using the Global Workforce Analytics platform, two additional functions (Media and Gaming & Retail) have been added in the employee distribution charts.


  • Along with the data refresh of the Radford U.S. Pre-IPO Survey, the implementation of our new industry codes on this survey has also gone into effect with this release. Similar to our other surveys updated last month, you will notice new Market Filters when using the Quick Benchmarks and Market Queries tools.

    You will also receive a notification the next time you log into Market Queries that any saved queries you previously had have now been mapped to the new industry codes. For a detailed description of these changes, please refer to our July Radford Network Update Notes.

  • When viewing a downloaded report created with the Radford U.S. Pre-IPO Survey data, the Base Salary + Target Incentives data on the summary table in the Compensation Summary tab is now mapped from Data Element 37: All Employees. Previously this was mapped from Data Element 36: Reporting Employees.
